Sure, it's nice to indulge in a fancy-pants $40-plus lipstick from the department store every now and then, but let's be real: We all love a bargain. And luckily, there are tons of new affordable lipsticks on the market at the moment, available in every color of the rainbow (and every finish too, of course).
Ready to meet some of the best lipsticks of 2018? From duochrome metallic crèmes to velvety liquid mattes to sheer glossy formulas, check out some of our favorite new lippies of the year — all under $15.

Want to own a tiny bit of Isabel Marant for a price you can actually afford? Check out her latest collab with L'Oreal. We already count ourselves fans of L'Oreal's richly pigmented lipstick formula and this fashionable update is especially chic, what with its stylish shade range and even more stylish packaging.
We've become so accustomed to ultra-matte liquid lippies that a shiny one like this acts as a nice little shake-up. Plus, it certainly helps that it happens to be very creamy with a completely opaque, mirror-shiny finish.
These creamy lipsticks have great color payoff and an even greater shade selection (49 and counting). They're currently available in two finishes (matte and crème) and both look and feel much more expensive than they actually are (plus, we love the little stars embossed into each bullet).
These are pretty much everything you could ask for in a lip product — bright, shiny, long-wearing and non-drying. Who knew all those positive attributes could coexist in one budget-friendly tube?
